Proverbs 28:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 He who keeps instruction is a child of understanding,
but the companion of gluttons will shame his father.
8 He who augments his wealth with interest and with usury
gathers it for him who is kind to the poor.
9 He who turns his ear from listening to instruction,
even his prayer is an abomination.
Proverbs 28:7-9
New International Version
7 A discerning son heeds instruction,
but a companion of gluttons disgraces his father.(A)
8 Whoever increases wealth by taking interest(B) or profit from the poor
amasses it for another,(C) who will be kind to the poor.(D)
9 If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction,
even their prayers are detestable.(E)
